Stranded

The roads are empty and hauntingly beautiful
As I stare at the dark sky, a chill runs down my spineÂ
I tell myself 'This is beautiful'Â
No one comes hereÂ
The dark clouds are hovering around the night skyÂ
But the night is young and beautifulÂ
The orange hued light is inviting me to go and stand thereÂ
I can't stop myself from admiring the quietness and stillness of the nightÂ
The tree complements my solitudeÂ
I close my eyes for a second and I hear the slow whispers of the windÂ
I hear the slow rustles of the leavesÂ
I hear voicesÂ
My voices, telling me to stop everything and take a break
The petrichor is making me want to stay longerÂ
I'm strandedÂ
Although I don't know where to go, I know exactly where to stayÂ
